I keep trying to do this, but others point out that the ion code is
"going to be fixed up soon" and that people rely on this interface now.
Well, "code outside of the kernel tree" relies on this, which is not ok,
but the "soon" people keep insisting on it...

Odds are I should just delete all of ION, as there hasn't been any
forward progress on it in a long time.

Hopefully that wakes some people up...

thanks,
